La Granja de San Ildefonso is in Sierra de Guadarrama segoviana. What the area is like and what trips start there

Which way it goes

Within the province almost everything converges on the city of Segovia: the hospital, Guiomar station and public offices. Public transport links the capital well with Madrid but the villages poorly with each other, and from the north-east or the Tierra de Pinares getting to the hospital or catching an early train is hard without a car.

Alcázar de Segovia, seen from Segovia

The Alcázar stands at the western tip of the old town, above the meeting of the Eresma and Clamores rivers, at the opposite end of the city from the aqueduct. Many visitors walk there from the aqueduct, so it helps to fix the pickup at one end or the other.

On arrival: Segovia y su entorno

The city of Segovia holds the hospital, the high-speed station, the provincial offices and an old town of narrow streets perched above the Eresma and Clamores rivers. It generates both departures of residents towards Barajas and Madrid and arrivals of visitors who come for the day between the aqueduct and the Alcázar.

When demand peaks

• Long weekends and trips from Madrid (weekends, long weekends and Easter): Segovia and La Granja are among the most common day trips from Madrid. On long weekends and at Easter the old town and the area around the aqueduct fill up, and return pickups in the late afternoon all coincide.

Tip: In winter, if the trip crosses the mountains before dawn, allow more time than usual: fog and ice are common on the climb to San Rafael and on the passes.

What the price includes

• Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
• Complimentary waiting and flight or train tracking.
• Child restraint systems if you need them.
• The 10 % Spanish VAT on passenger transport.
